Title: | Multi-material additive manufacturing : a systematic review of design, properties, applications, challenges, and 3D printing of materials and cellular metamaterials | Authors: | Nazir, A Gokcekaya, O Md Masum Billah, K Ertugrul, O Jiang, J Sun, J Hussain, S |
Issue Date: | Feb-2023 | Source: | Materials and design, Feb. 2023, v. 226, 111661 | Abstract: | Extensive research on nature-inspired cellular metamaterials has globally inspired innovations using single material and limited multifunctionality. Additive manufacturing (AM) of intricate geometries using multi-materials provides additional functionality, environmental adaptation, and improved mechanical properties. Recently, several studies have been conducted on multi-material additive manufacturing (MMAM) technologies, including multi-materials, methodologies, design, and optimization. However, in the past six years, very few or no systematic and complete reviews have been conducted in this research domain. This review intends to comprehensively summarize MMAM systems and the working principles of its fundamental processes. Herein, the Multi-material combinations and their design, modeling, and analysis strategies have been reviewed systematically. In particular, the focus is on applications and opportunities for using MMAM for several industries and postprocessing MMAM fabricated parts. Furthermore, this review identified the limitations and challenges of existing software packages, MMAM processes, materials, and joining mechanisms, especially at the multi-material interfaces. Finally, we discuss the possible strategies to overcome the aforementioned technological challenges and state the future directions, which will provide insights to researchers and engineers designing and manufacturing complex nature-inspired objects. | Keywords: | 3D printing Additive manufacturing Cellular metamaterials Cellular structures DfAM Multi-material |
